Well, I saw the first DVD of "Slayers NEXT." Awesome. I think the animation is a bit better in this one. I really liked episode six when Martina was all obsessive. *snerk* Zel was cutting his hair with wire cutters and comments, "I have split ends?" Cute. I do see the point how people get annoyed with Xellos' English voice. He's not around too much so I can deal with it.

OK, people on the fruits_basket community were all up in arms about wether or not Haru is gay. I personally don't think he is, but I wasn't about to dip my toe into all that. Me, I think people will think what they want to about a certain character, even if it's supported or not supported by canon. I mean, lighten up, people! THEY'RE NOT REAL!!!!

Well, I must go eat and get my blood work done. I know, I said I was going to do it Friday, but I didn't. Big deal.

I take it you've been watching the dub? I actually just finished watching Next dubbed this morning, that being the second time in six years I've seen it through. They changed the script somewhat from the sub (which bothers me), but it's not nearly so bad in Next as it is in the first season. Anyway, enough of me, I hope you enjoy it a lot! (And you've barely touched the surface.) ^_-

What are you getting blood work done for?

Yeah, I'm a dubber. My philosphy is, "It doesn't matter which version you watch, as long as you watch it and enjoy it."
Though I do watch it with the subs on also. Sometimes it's funny to catch the differences.

I have to turn in my other two DVD's before I can get any others (which I still have yet to watch).

I have to get blood work done every six months or so because of the medication I'm on for my Crohn's. It can cause liver damage and they have to make sure my liver is doing OK. It's not so bad. I ask for the small (thinner) needle so it doesn't hurt as much. ^_^

I can go either way with subs and dubs, depending on how good the acting is. (I originally believed my sub-loving friends though, and wouldn't watch dubs. Thank goodness for Pokmon...) I have watched the dub before with the subtitles on, because yes, there are some differences even with that. I'll probably end up watching the sub again after I finish off TRY, but that's because I love the Japanese cast so! ^_^;;

I suppose that's the nice thing about owning DVDs. Best investment I ever made. (Now I shan't go insane while I'm penniless!) I guess all you can do now is watch those two DVDs so you can get more! ^_-

I'm glad you're taking care of yourself. One of my brothers has a friend with Crohn's, but he didn't want to acknowledge it until it was nearly too late. He had most of his intestines removed to save his life... o_O 'Tis far better to have to have checkups every 6 months than to risk losing your life. And after a while, it becomes so routine anyway. (I have weak teeth and always had cavities growing up, so I no longer fear the dentist's needle.) ^_-;; Hang in there!

Actually it's not so bad. I have Crohn's colitis and it's a less severe form of full-on Crohn's. Whether it worsens as time goes, I don't know. Only time will tell, I guess.
